Press Release (2001) 125 13 Sept. 2001	Statement by the NATO Spokesman An article published this morning in The Guardian reported that NATO was drawing up plans for a massive attack on Afghanistan. The story is wrong. It is based on unfounded speculations. I deny the contents of the article and wish to make it clear that NATO is not planning the invasion of Afghanistan, or of any other country, as suggested by the Guardian's article.
